If they have free time and are EXPERIENCED TRANSLATORS, why don't they
fully complete Ubuntu's Persian translation?  Then you get what you
wanted, right?

Moreover, instead of SHOUTING, show us why you think they are
EXPERIENCED TRANSLATORS.  I've been around the Free Software Persian
computing scene for the past eight years and never heard of the person
you mention..

The way to help, as has been repeatedly pointed out to you, is to submit
your translations and be patient.  This is how our code is written, and
this should be how our translation is done.

Freedom does not mean anarchy.  Get over it.
